5.3 Some Administrative Rules Could Not be Observed on Day of Visit

When rules could not be observed on the day of the visit, but may be applicable to the program, the licensing specialist can discuss these specific rules with the program and then mark these rules met, since the program was not observed to be out of compliance on the day of the visit. If desired, the licensing specialist may document in the Internal Comments field that the rule was discussed and who it was reviewed with. Alternatively, the licensing specialist may decide that it is necessary to return on another day to observe that area of the program operation. If so, s/he may announce and schedule the return visit to assure that it will be possible to observe the program’s compliance with those particular rules.
